the efficacies of SAEW treatment dipping
on reducing the microbial populations on the germinated millets
were investigated. The initial microbial populations of total aerobic
bacteria were 7.37 (log10CFU g1). The microbial populations of
millet treated by SAEW1, SAEW2 and SAEW3 for 2 h decreased
to 6.57, 6.30 and 6.61 log10CFU g1, respectively in comparison
with that of the control (7.72 log10CFU g1).
